Hi all,
I've never used the "reference files" feature in Studio, and I wonder how it works. I can't find any information about it in Help, except how to add reference files, or switch usage type to reference.
I've got a PDF reference file (monolingual, target language) and after adding it to my project, I can't access it, except simply by opening it in a PDF reader. Surely the idea is to use it in Studio somehow? Maybe through concordance?
Can anyone enlighten me?
Thanks,
Emma
Hi Emma,
I wish it was that clever! This is just there so a shared project, or a project package can contain files that might be useful for the translator as they work. Setting them as reference files means they can be included without throwing an unrecognisable error and of course they won't be included in the analysis if they could be translatable.

Hi Emma,
Took me a litle while to find that tool! Looks very interesting but only seems to support txt files... did I get that right? What's interesting here is that one of our Corporiate customers developed a similar tool that works for all Studio supported filetypes and integrated this into Studio. The files used to display the results are all stored on Sharepoint and the look up looks through there, but it seems a good idea to have this based on storage on your local machine. Perhaps they'll make a version available on the OpenX in the future, or someone else will do one. After reading the AntConc guide the terminology is almost the same too! AnyConc uses KWIC (KeyWords In Context) and the Studio plugin is called CRIC (Concordance Results In Context)
Interesting stuff!
